### Product Information
NealtaTM miticide is a suspension concentrate formulation containing the active ingredient cyflumetofen, a member of the beta-ketonitrile class of chemistry. When used as directed, Nealta provides knockdown and residual control of tetranychid mites on the crops listed on this label. Nealta is a highly active contact miticide on egg, nymph, and adult stage tetranychid mites. Because Nealta is notsystemic and has no translaminar activity, thorough coverage of plant surfaces is necessary for effective control. Nealta is not effective on non-tetranychid mites such as broad mite, flat mite, or rust mite. See Pests Controlled list for mites controlled. 

### STORAGE AND DISPOSAL (continued) 

### Container Handling (continued) Triple rinse containers small enough to shake (capacity ≤ 5 gallons) as follows: Empty the remaining contents into application equipment or a mix tank and drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip. Fill thecontainer 1/4 full with water and recap. Shake for 10 seconds. Pour rinsate into application equipment or a mix tank, or store rinsate for later use or disposal. Drain for10 seconds after the flow begins to drip. Repeat this procedure two more times.
Pressure rinse as follows: Empty the remaining contents into application equipment or mix tank and continue to drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip. Hold container upside down over application equipment or mix tank, or collect rinsate for later use or disposal. Insert pressure rinsing nozzle in the side of the container and rinse at about 40 PSI for at least 30 seconds. Drain for 10 seconds after the flow begins to drip.

### AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS Use this product only in accordance with its labeling and with the Worker Protection Standard, 40 CFR Part 170. This standard contains requirements for the protection of agricultural workers on farms, forests, nurseries, and greenhouses, and handlers of agricultural pesticides. It contains requirements for training, decontamination, notification, and emergency assistance. It also contains specific instructions and exceptions pertaining to thestatements on this label about personal protective equipment (PPE), notification to workers, and restricted-entry interval. The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this product that are covered by the Worker Protection Standard. DO NOT enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted-entry interval (REI) of 12 hours

.PPE required for early entry to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with anything that has been treated, such as plants, soil, or water, is: • Coveralls • Chemical-resistant gloves, made of any waterproof

material (such as nitrile, butyl, neoprene, and/or barrier laminate) • Shoes plus socks4 Nealta TM miticide is compatible with most biological control products.
Because Nealta is compatible with beneficial arthropods, it can be used effectively in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and resistance management programs. Nealta doesnot have a negative impact on field populations of the following beneficial insects:
Beneficial Insects

Nealta is not systemic or translaminar; therefore, thorough coverage of plant surfaces is important for optimum performance

. 

### Resistance Management Cyflumetofen, the active ingredient in Nealta , belongs to the group of respiration inhibitors classified by the Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC) as target-site-of-action Group 25 acaricide, a Mitochondria complex ll electron transport inhibitor . Repeated use of miticides with similar modes of action can lead to the buildup of resistant strains of mites. DO NOT exceed the maximum seasonal use rate or the total number of applications of Nealta per season. To reduce the potential for developing mite resistance, rotateto a miticide with a different mode of action. Monitor treated mite populations for resistance development. Read product label before applying any miticide and follow label directions. Contact your local extension specialist, certified crop advisor, and/or BASF representative for additional resistance management or IPM recommendations. 

### Plant Tolerance
Plant tolerance to Nealta has been found to be acceptable in research trials for the crops listed on this label. However,due to the large number of plant species and their associated varieties or cultivars, and due to variable growing conditions, it is impossible to test every plant for tolerance to this product.
Neither the manufacturer or seller has determined whether this product can be used without injury on all varieties of plants. It is the responsibility of the user to determine if this product can be used without causing plant injury prior to commercial use. In a small test area, test the specified rates on plants for phytotoxicity prior to large-scale use. The end user assumes all risks arising from application of Nealta in a manner inconsistent with the label requirements. 

### Pests Controlled When used according to label instructions, Nealta is effective in controlling the following tetranychid mites:



### Application Instructions For maximum effectiveness, apply Nealta at the first sign of mites before the population increases. Application should be timed to coincide with locally recommended treatment threshold levels in developing mitepopulations. Apply to foliage using properly calibrated ground sprayers (refer to Crop-specific Application Instructions table). Thorough and uniform spray coverage of foliage, withdirect contact to target pest, is required for effective control. Applications made at lower volumes may result in less than thorough coverage which can lead to slower activityand/or less control than those made with higher spray volumes. Consult with your local or state extension personnel for advice on miticide use andselection. Nealta is rainfast one (1) hour after an application has dried. Apply Nealta in sufficient volume of water to ensure thorough coverage of foliage. For thorough coverage, use higher water volume.

Because Nealta is not systemic ortranslaminar, thorough coverage of plant surfaces is necessary for effective control. Applying Nealta at spray volumes lower than directed can make it harder to obtain thorough crop coverage and may reduceperformance. 

### Controlling Spray Drift
Variable Winds. DO NOT apply in variable wind conditions.
Wind Direction. Wind direction (e.g. away from nontarget areas) must be based on the average direction (not instantaneous). Wind Speed. Maximum sustained wind must not exceed 15 mph measured at the nozzle height (release height). Inversion Restriction. DO NOT apply if conditions will entrain spray droplets (consult Pasquill stability categories). Sensitive Areas. To ensure the protection of threatened or endangered species, it is important to maintain spray drift loadings below levels of concern for any area adjacent to the application site that is not excluded as possible habitat for these organisms. The following restrictions apply:
• Buffer distance - 15 feet
• Release height - 20 inches
• Droplet size - A combination of spray nozzles and

appropriate pressure must be selected to provide ASABE standard S571.1 droplet size category of fine (DV0.5 of ≥ 180 microns) or coarser than fine.
• Maximum wind speed - 15 mph 

### Cleaning Spray Equipment Spraying equipment must be cleaned thoroughly before and after applying this product, particularly if a product with potential to injure crops was used before Nealta

. 

### Additives and Tank Mixing Information
Shake container well before use.
Nealta can be tank mixed with most recommended fungicides, insecticides,liquid fertilizers, biological control products, adjuvants, and additives. Under some conditions, the use of additives or adjuvants can improve the performance of Nealta . However, all varieties and cultivars have not been tested with all possible tank mix combinations. Local conditions can also influence crop tolerance and may not match those under which BASF has conducted testing. Physical incompatibility,reduced disease control, or crop injury can result from mixing Nealta with other products. Before using any tank mix (fungicides, insecticides, liquidfertilizers, biological control products, adjuvants, and additives), test the combination on a small portion of the cropto be treated (including plant cultivars) to ensure that a phytotoxic response will not occur as a result of application. Evaluate for crop response 3 to 7 days before making an application to the entire crop. When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, BASF recommends the use of a Chemical Producers and Distributors Association certified adjuvant.Consult a BASF representative or local agricultural authorities for more information concerning additives. 

### Mixing Order

1. Water - Begin by agitating a thoroughly clean sprayer tank 3/4 full of clean water. 2. Agitation - Maintain constant agitation throughout mixing and application. 3. Inductor - If an inductor is used, rinse it thoroughly after each component has been added. 4. Products in PVA bags - Place any product contained in water-soluble PVA bags into the mixing tank. Wait until all water-soluble PVA bags have fully dissolved and the product is evenly mixed in the spray tank before continuing. 5. Water-dispersible products (such as Nealta
, dry flowables, wettable powders, other suspension concentrates, or suspo-emulsions) 6. Water-soluble products 7. Emulsifiable concentrates (such as oil concentrates when applicable) 8. Water-soluble additives (such as AMS or UAN when applicable) 9. Remaining quantity of waterMake sure each component is thoroughly mixed and suspended before adding tank mix partners. Maintain constant agitation during application.
